[A/S] Re: Airstream Painting



We, too, Had our Airstream painted, using zinc oxide primer under a 
cream top coat.  It looked like an Argosy, except for the nameplate 
above the front window.  Many people asked us about it.  We had it 
done because the previous owners had painted with Aluminum, which 
didn't stick.  Our boys called it the peeling elephant <LOL>.  It was 
a '62 Land Yacht with a pull-out bed and two singles on either side 
of the dining table.  Served us well, though only a single axle and 
had no gray water tank.

Painting needs to be done by a professional (IMHO).  They have the 
tools and expertise to deliver a quality job.

Good luck.
